Coolangatta, Queensland. Twin Towns
Coolangatta is the southernmost suburb of the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. It has a population of 4,869 and is named after the schooner Coolangatta which was wrecked there in 1846.
Coolangatta and its immediate neighbouring "Twin Town" Tweed Heads in New South Wales have a shared economy. The Tweed River supports a thriving fishing fleet, and the seafood is a local specialty offered in the restaurants and clubs of the holiday and retirement region on both sides of the state border.
The Gold Coast Airport, formerly known as Coolangatta Airport, is located at Coolangatta, with some of the runway going across the border into New South Wales. (Via Wikipedia)
Coolongatta has a humid subtropical climate with warm, wet summers and cool, moist winters. Although there is four times as much rainfall in March as there is in September, Coolongatta is still considered to have no dry season because there is more than a tenth of the rainfall of the wettest month in the driest month of the year.
